Lookup value

Hi there,

 

I have a table with employee's name and his/her position and need to write formula to get results as it is shown in column 'Position_Full'. Lookupvalue didn't work.. Any help please?

    Hi,

    Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

     

     

     

    Position_Full CC = 
VAR _currentname = 'Table'[Name]
VAR _lookuptable =
    SUMMARIZE (
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Position] <> BLANK () ),
        'Table'[Name],
        'Table'[Position]
    )
RETURN
    MAXX (
        FILTER ( _lookuptable, 'Table'[Name] = _currentname ),
        'Table'[Position]
    )
